My youngest, Harry, has suffered chronic toothache since Thursday evening and, with the help of 'Bonjela Cool' has had to brave it out until the first available appointment I could make which is this afternoon.
I made this quick sketch while he was sat at the kitchen table last night and coloured it after he'd gone off to bed complete with a dose of Calpol.
The sketch is in the new Roberson HP sketchbook I purchased and I found myself getting used to this paper a little more this time I used watercolour on it. I knew it would buckle but I knew it would flatten out after. It is wonderful to draw and write on, the Lamy pen just flowed all over it's surface. I like the size too, enough room for a small sketch and a little note alongside makes it a great size for journaling. So, perhaps it isn't as poor a purchase as I first thought. It does make the other sketchbook I have been resisting VERY tempting though as that is filled with 300gsm paper and it seems thickness is the only element missing is the Roberson.
Hmmmm!

Poor possum! He looks a bit miserable. Lovely soft colours you've used.
Nicely done portrait, just feel bad for the poor little guy.
